Denzel Washington signing up for first sequel with ‘The Equalizer 2’

I really enjoyed ‘The Equalizer,’ Denzel Washinton’s team-up with his ‘Training Day’ Director Antoine Fuqua. It had a solid old school feel mixed with modern violence sensibilities so I was excited to hear the early buzz of a sequel following the film’s solid opening weekend and its $192 total gross.

Sony announced ‘The Equalizer 2’ at CinemaCon with a logo reveal. While he hasn’t officially signed on yet, Washington is expected to sign off for the sequel, which would be a first in his career. Better this than ‘2 Guns.’
